| - This neighborhood coffee shop is full of laid-back charm and zero hipster 'tude ~ step inside and immediately feel warm and welcome. The barista's first words to me - an answer to my question about payment - set the stage: "Yes, we're cash only but we do take I-owe-you's if you don't have enough on you!" Huh?!? It's clear the owners aim to create a sense of community here, and there's a real feeling of goodwill.
Sit inside or out at small, round European-style tables, or cozy up in the back room - a neat sofa-and-chair-filled space with children's toys and books and an array of vintage musical instruments and electric guitars for anyone to pick up and play. AWESOME.
Compelling artwork hangs from the walls, sculptures peek out from the shop's nooks and crannies, and vinyl records spin on a vintage record player.
All in all, it's a nice space to spend some time in, and nobody is going to rush you out. I had a big latte, which was quite good, and a macaroon, which was even better. My bill was under $5.
